I just purchased EQ7 a few weeks ago. I am retired and on a budget, but I am an "Intermediate" level quilter. It comes with quite a number of designs and you can create your own and make it any size quilt that you would like. You don't have to calculate the yardage of material. You can use templates, rotary cutting and "paper-pieced" It gives directions and comes with a handbook. It is well worth it. I purchased mine at www.connectingthreads.com. I didn't have to pay shipping...so that helped.
I hope this information helped. It could be possible to create your own designs and sell them. That would help in getting your money back.
